I don't know? I will say that I thought we would lose 2 or 3 games this season and we are right on track. Would i like us to be better? yes Can anyone tell me what the strength is of this team now? Its never easy replacing key players and defending a title the same year. Its not the end of the world, the good news is after next week we could win out and play in a January bowl or at least an Indy bowl til next year would be good enough for me. It gives us time to work out the kinks and I wouldn't want to play this team next year.
Let's be honest. We could lose to both Florida and Arkansas. We have severe QB problems. We need Rohan Davey right now, but Russell is a year or two away from picking up where Rohan left off. We've got problems on defense, too. I also agree that our O-Line play needs to improve. I really don't think that we can beat Florida in the Swamp. I'd like to think that we can beat the Pigs in Little Rock, but no LSU coach has done that against the Pigs current coach. Did some of us really think that we would repeat as NC? I thought that we had a chance prior to the season, but sometime during the game against Oregon State I realized that we were not going to set the world on fire this year. That's OK! Just look at what we've accomplished already, and think about how much better we'll be next year!
tigers win big next week, in "bounce back games" we always dominate in 200 after we lost to UAB, and after arkansas in 00 beat us 14-3, after ole miss beat us soundly in tiger stadium in 01, after the va tech game , after the florida game last year, and after the auburn game this year. when our backs have been against the wall under saban we have been great, i hope the pattern continues, LSU-33 Fla-14 i know its wishful thinking and why 33, because we will get 5 TD's but miss 2 extra points at which saban quits kicking XP's
but really saban teams respond well when their backs are against the wall, and boy if they werent before they definitly are now
I really hate to say it but I really don't think we will win more than 6 games this year. Nick Saban is a really good coach but I believe he has dropped the ball this year with the QB situation. I know that the D looked horrible today but we have yet to but a good offensive game plan together all year except the two really weak teams on our schedule. We still don't know who he will start next week at QB. RB have left a lot of question marks. The WRs and DL has done pretty good so far this year. The o-line had done OK and DBs look freakin horrible. I think Leak is salavating at the mouth right now. I hope we win next week but I just don't have a good feeling about the rest of the year. LSUDAN
